Nathan Carroll and Brock Tyler
Two of Edmonton's heralded young songwriters share the stage, performing songs from their critically acclaimed records. Tyler and Carroll's alternative roots stylings are rich with lyrical prowess, gripping harmonies and sensitive, skillful instrumentation (seasoned with guitars, banjo and pedal steel). Not to be missed by lovers of music and those who appreciate the fine craft of songwriting.

My Tiny Circus
My Tiny Circus is an Ottawa based LoungeCore collective which uses the finest local jazz and big band musicians who are available cheaply and at short notice to play original and only slightly offensive songs about Sex, Sin and Satan in a breezy Lounge-Pop style. Enjoy such soon to be classic songs as Loser Magnet, Space Camp Dropout, Giant Mouse Head, 1-800-666-HELL and A la recherche de Tom Perdu. They are either destined for greatness or an orgy of acrimony and self-destruction.

Tunturia
"A remarkable debut from a group of musicians with enormous potential.
Tunturia: a band with a conscience, a band with big ideas, a band so effortlessly epic that it should be a criminal offence to ignore them."
/- AngryApe 8.25/10/
"Maps is an avalanche of melodie and emotions, an instrumental tornado...an uninterrupted flow of feelings and notes, a rare talent in conjugating aesthetic beauty and descriptive violence."

Ukrainia
Armed with an arsenal of songs and a high-energy stage show full of audience participation, Ukrainia is without a doubt one of the most exiting live acts around today. Their sound is transforming the foundation of Ukrainian music as we know it, and bringing it to an explosive new level. It’s loud, passionate, in your face, and not for the weak. No banduras here, just three guitars, drums, accordions and a whole lotta vodka fuel this musical juggernaut. The younger generation has embraced Ukrainia for the way they have transformed traditional Ukrainian music into a rock'n'roll floor shaking party for the senses. They have played some of the biggest festivals in North America, leaving a trail of awed and inspired new followers in their wake-taking no prisoners and converting the survivors.
